An exchange of letters about union intimidation claims at the U
Just an update in the efforts by a group of University of Minnesota graduate students to form a union.
Last month, I tweeted from a grad-student forum that some students were saying they'd received an administration memo claiming that union organizers were intimidating students in an effort to get them to join.
Below are two letters that the U has apparently sent the organizers, and after that comes the students' response.
(Note: About four dozen people signed the student letter. Only one is listed, because I left off the two pages that followed to save space.)
